I just got my Axe two days ago. My wife bought it for my birthday. I had been practicing with Real Flight for about 5 weeks. With all of this practice I was able to get it trimmed out and be hovering tail in by the third pack Friday night. On Saturday I went down to the LHS and bought a Thunder Power 3s 1320 lipo. WOW this thing flies so much better with the lipo battery. Was having a great time until my heli started to glitch so I landed it then I lost all controll of the heli. I went down to my LHS and we figured out that the entire receiver had died. [] We were able to cannibalize the receiver from a broken Axe they had in the back. Now all is well. I am just waiting for my batteries to charge so I can go fly it some more.
